After decades of diligently checking his mailbox every day, Mr. Wilbur Snorflebonger has finally received his long awaited male privilege…

“ I couldn’t believe my eyes,” he told our reporter. “I had been hearing about male privilege ever since childhood, yet somehow I had never seemed to receive mine! I was starting to think the entire thing was some sort of myth. You know, like a leprechaun or something. Then this morning there it was, a beacon of hope radiating from my mailbox like the dawn of a new day. I swear, I don’t know why it took so long to get here. I can only assume it’s been lost in the mail for the last 35 years. But hey, what matters is it’s finally arrived and I’m pleased as punch. I have to admit it’s not as large a package as the rumors had led me to expect… in fact it’s not so much a package as it is a small envelope containing an even smaller note…”

“And what does the note say?” I asked Mr. Snorflebonger.

“Well, it’s a pretty fancy note, I should point out. Embossed, and with faux gold trimmings…”

“Yes, but what does it say? What is your actual ‘male privilege’?”

“Well, apparently I am able to write my name in the snow without having to bend over! Of course, I am not allowed to do it when anybody else is around or I will be arrested. But hey, most women can’t do it at all! Ha ha! It’s good to be King!”

And there we leave Wilbur Snorflebonger, a simple and trusting man who has at last seen the promise of patriarchal privilege delivered on. Best of luck to you, sir. All you have to do now is find a way to stop paying your wife child support for a child of which you have custody.

For those not familiar with Bloom County, Binkley was constantly waking up his long-suffering dad in the middle of the night to tell him something or other. This is one of the few times when it was actually something important…

Rape culture. You want an example of rape culture? How about this fucking disgusting, sexist, misogynistic article in the UK’s Daily Mail?

Some bastard rapes a woman paid to walk his dog, and all the article can go on about is how the rapist is some hunk who looks like Brad Pitt and that the rape should be blamed on his meds. This, this is why women who are raped don’t come forward, because they know they’re going to be treated like a joke. Fuck the Daily Mail, fuck the police and fuck all the commenters at the newspaper’s website.

Here is the story in its entirety. If you must give those bastards a visit there’s a link to the original article at the bottom of the page.

 

An English dog walker is claiming that a sex-crazed Brad Pitt look-alike stabbed her after she refused to have sex with him for a third time.

Nicole Standish told police that Christopher McHamish – a stunningly handsome man in his 30s — had already forced her at knifepoint to have intercourse and perform oral sex.

Standish claims that when she returned Muffy the dog to McHamish’s home he asked her to bring the dog in and then demanded that she have sex with him ( “she” meaning Standish, not the dog.) When Miss Standish refused, the handsome hunk allegedly pulled out a knife and forced her to undress. Police investigating the claims say that McHamish’s behavior may have been caused by a combination of medication and too many Ding Dongs – several empty boxes of the chocolaty treat were found in the man’s kitchen.

Miss Standish claims that her life has been made a living hell by gal pals who keep ribbing her about the fact that she actually had to be forced to have sex with the mirror image of someone once dubbed The Sexiest Man Alive.

Ms Standish, a small mousy woman with a disproportionately large tuckus,  told us…

“It’s awful, I’m a local celebrity now, every one is talking about me. They don’t understand why I refused such a good looking guy, but unless you’re some sort of rutting dog you don’t just have it off with everyone you meet, no matter how good looking they are. And once he takes out a knife and starts yelling at you, well it’s pretty bloody hard to get in the mood then, isn’t it?”

Miss Standish managed to escape after she barricaded herself in the bathroom and phoned the police. She was then taken to  hospital suffering from more than half a dozen stab wounds.

“We are interviewing both parties to discover what could have happened,” said a police spokesman.

Ever wonder why William Bennett is so big and fat? It’s because he’s full of shit.

In a grotesquely offensive article, the animal responsible for sending countless of harmless men to jail for minor drug offenses so that corporate scum can rake in the moolah has now chosen to enforce the notion of male disposability by holding up the men who committed suicide at the Dark Knight Rises shootings as paragons to be emulated – but only by other men. Yes, the same man who criticizes his fellow Americans’ lack of discipline while stuffing his face like a rabid warthog wants us to take his opinion on moral matters seriously. And make no mistake, Bennett’s praise is not for bravery or sacrifice in themselves, it is all about gender….

“By all appearances, these men believed that a man has a responsibility to protect a woman, even to the point of death.”

And it is that which Bennett is praising – the belief that a woman’s life is simply worth more than a man’s. And does Bennett bother to give any argument as to why it is a good and “honorable” thing for men to die for another simply because that other is a woman? No, of course not, the closest he gets is this…

“ They put the lives of the women before their own, an old fashioned notion to be sure, but certainly an honorable one (if you have any doubt, ask the survivors). “

Yes, the evidence for his opinion that these were honorable ( as opposed to self-loathing and self-destructive ) actions is someone else’s opinion that these were honorable actions…

Bennett then compounds his sins by adding shaming tactics to his intellectual dishonesty…

“This is especially important given the state of many men today. Record numbers of men aren’t working or even looking for work. Record numbers aren’t marrying or even acting as fathers to their children. These men need heroes to imitate who they can relate to in everyday life… They need heroes like the Aurora three.”

So you see, men can make up for their woeful state by giving their lives for the nearest woman. Note also the way that male unemployment is implied to be the common man’s fault – as he isn’t “even looking for work” – rather than that of the plutocratic scum who have spent the last 30 years sending manufacturing jobs overseas, nor something to be blamed on the recent financial meltdown. No, it’s the average Joe’s fault and he must make up for it some way – even if it means giving his life for the nearest member of The Important Sex.

Still in doubt as to just how much importance Bennett attaches to males seeing themselves as lesser than females? He apparently thinks it is one of the best things in the world, perhaps even better than donuts and gambling…

“… we should hold the Aurora three high. It is only by telling their story that this code of honor will survive for future generations of men. “The world is forwarded by having its attention fixed on the best things,” Matthew Arnold wrote….”
